    Love how “sizzle” does double duty by also describing what I presume is happening between the characters in panel 3 …

      Pretty sure the only thing happening there was panic – on both parts. There may, however, be a delayed effect once the adrenaline subsides.

    You’re lucky we’re not OSHA, or we’d write you up for that

    Hmm… They made the death traps they showed off safer, but removed the warnings for the death traps they didn’t decide to show. Suspicious.

      They thought that they would be like the last inspectors they had:

      Stringy.

    Couldn’t they have put up a warning in magnetic poetry?

      Nothing rhymes with “corrosive”.

        arrosive “gnawing; chewing; corroding ”
        purposive “acting with a purpose or design”
        displosive “explosive” (archaic)

        Caution: corrosive, for zombies arrosive! For death it’s purposive, but not too displosive.

      Ok, “explosive” does, but is it applicable here?

        Also “erosive,” but that’s a bit archaic.

          Of course with only three hundred some words, there’s only so much that can be expressed.

    I realize that Anasigma is an evil organization, but there has got to be a point of diminishing returns on death traps. One or two in areas to be infiltrated, sure, that’s just good sense, but an acid sprinkler? Not only would that cause high personnel turnover but the splash damage might break valuable equipment! The HR managers and accountants have to be falling down on the job.

      “Emergency acid showers” and eyewash stations are common in areas where toxic chemicals are in use, but this is a new take on the concept. Just watch out that Unity doesn’t get distracted “playing in the sprinkler”.

      “he HR managers and accountants have to be falling down on the job.”

      Only if they get caught in the sprinklers.

        Didn’t Hitty just flick the HR manager off the top of Annex One?

    But we installed safety hand rails in the acid baths!

    Do the flamethrowers on the wheelchair have a choice of scents? Is the overdrive gear fully automatic?

    With the exception of a middle manager or two, I’ve never worked in a place with acid showers.
